It took a few minutes, but Mix and Saten eventually made it to UA. He went towards his dorm building, and landed them in his room, teleporting them through the window to do so. He sets Saten down slowly, who's a little dizzy like Mix was the first time he traveled like that.

Saten: Woooah..

Mix: You alright?

Saten: Yeah.. just need a minute.

She makes her way to Mix's desk and takes a seat.

Saten: Wow.. alright, that's better. Where'd you land us anyways?

Mix: My-

It dawns on Mix he just teleported a girl that he was.. fond of spending time with, straight into his room.

Saten: Your rooom?

Mix nods, screaming at himself internally.

Saten: Ohhhh..

She looks around, taking in her surroundings. Mainly all the art on the walls.

Saten: Did you draw all of these yourself?

Mix: Hm? Um, yeah. It's a hobby of mine.

Saten: Wow.. they're all so detailed..

She spends another minute admiring some of them. She seemed to spend most of it looking at one drawing in particular. A boy, wearing full armor and wielding a sword and shield. He had spikes of ice all around him.

Mix: Th-Thanks..

He blushes a little, really unsure how to feel about this situation. Wait a second why is he not focusing on the situation at hand?! He shook his head to get focused again.

Mix: A-Anyway! We need to get down to business.

Saten: Right.

She stood, also having a look of getting back to focusing.

Saten: Any idea what we should do?

Mix: Shirai will probably be down by the entrance. We probably should've came in through their, that's on me.. anyway, can you go check if she's there?

Saten: I'm on it.

She went to the door and opened it, then looked back to him.

Saten: What're you gonna do?

Mix: I'll catch up in a minute. I just need to grab something.

Saten nods, then runs off to look for Shirai. Leaving Mix all by himself. He goes over to his bed and starts digging around under it, quickly finding what he needed. He pulled out a backpack, and a box about the same as said backpack.

Mix: There you are.

He opened the box and looked inside. It was his hero costume. He hadn't worn it, or even looked at it, since he transferred out of class 1A. Looking at it felt.. kinda strange now.

Mix: Nows my chance.. to finally prove I can be a hero.

He reached to grab the costume, then hesitated.

Mix: But..

Something Saten had said to him back when they met came back to his mind.

"Well, maybe you don't need to be like everyone else. Just be you, and be happy with yourself. I'm sure your great just how you are."

He had wanted nothing more to be a hero, sure.. but he was starting to be happy with what he ended up doing instead. Learning how to be a Judgement officer, making new friends, not to mention improving with his ability.. it had all happened because he had found a different path. A path where he wasn't a hero. Just.. Mix.

Mix nodded to himself, then closed the box.

Mix: I'm not a hero. I don't need to be. I am who I am.

He then grabbed the backpack and threw it over his shoulder. He'd definitely be needing it. Inside was something he recently had made by a certain insane pink haired tinkerer. It was-

Mix's train of thought was cut off as his door opened. He looked up, expecting to see Saten. However,

Mix: Morgan?

Morgan: Hey. We need to talk.
